What does Lotus Rising smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated as good, though the number of ratings is small, so the picture is tentative. It sits comfortably on both men and women.

The scent reads as one floral whole: blue lotus and pink lotus set a fresh, watery ground, while jasmine, rose, champaca and frangipani fill out the flowers. Iris and ambrette add a soft, powdery texture. Spicy, woody and earthy accords sit behind the petals, with animal and resinous touches adding depth.
